On the evening of the end of the semi-finals, due to the appointment of Zhang Xu's guidance chess, Mr. Wang Licheng gave an east banquet to invite Li Xiaoqiang and others. In addition to a group of Chinese chess players, Yukari Umezawa and Izumi Kobayashi were also brought on by the way.

"Compared with previous years, I feel that Cao Yanzi has indeed made a move, I really don't know how he did it, so Xiaoqiang, you must be careful when you touch him."

It was Mr. Lin Haifeng who said this. Mr. Lin, who had just lost the game, looked slightly tired. To say that he didn't feel bad after losing is obviously impossible. However, as a veteran who has played in the professional chess world for many years, Mr. Lin is able to control his emotions very well.

Especially in such a public setting, as a kind elder, Mr. Lin is even more reluctant to affect everyone with his depressed mood, so he takes the initiative to talk about his true feelings in the game. Save everyone from having an awkward atmosphere when eating.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin, I have long known this in my heart."

"Oh? So how do you think he did it? ”

Seeing that Li Xiaoqiang's demeanor really seemed to be "knowing in my heart", Mr. Lin was really interested now, and he asked again.

You know, the top players are actually quite sensitive to the feeling of winning and losing. This feeling is inexplicable, but it is often more real than what the outside world sees. What do masters look at a game of chess? Look at the opportunity! Whether a game of chess can be won is one thing, and how many "chances" it has to win another matter.

For example, a few years ago, Lin Haifeng also lost to Cao Yanzi, but he would not think that Cao Yanzi was at a higher level than himself, but was on the same level as himself. But what about now? He felt that he had fewer and fewer opportunities in the game, so he exclaimed just now, thinking that Cao Yanzi had made a move.

"Because there is a Lee Seok-fo in the Korean chess world, he plays a completely different kind of Go. Mr. Cao is a genius, so there is nothing surprising about his reverse growth. ”

Hearing Li Xiaoqiang's explanation, Mr. Lin was silent for a while, and he thought for a while. Then he sighed faintly: "Xiaoqiang's words make sense, it seems that this is the only way to explain ......"

You must know that the current Cao Yanzi is also over the age of confusion. Under normal circumstances, it is not easy for a chess player to maintain his peak at such an age, let alone improve his chess. Cao Yanzi's current situation is like a top martial arts master, if he just continues to practice his own unique skills, then at his age, there is very little chance of continuing to grow. It was at this time that he had the opportunity to come into contact with another very profound kung fu, although it was impossible to fully master it. But with a lot of contact, he was also able to absorb enough nutrients inside. This is the reason why Cao Yan is able to grow in reverse.

For a master like Mr. Lin, the truth in this is not difficult to understand. In fact, there is only one explanation. That's why he sighed. But after sighing, Mr. Lin then changed to a smile, he turned his head and said to Coach Luo with a smile:

"But Xiaoqiang also plays a completely different kind of Go. It seems that the one who can fight against Korean Go in the future mainly depends on Chinese Go. What about Ma Xiaofei? How is Ma Xiaofei's situation now? If Ma Xiaofei and Xiaoqiang join forces, there is nothing to be afraid of in Korean Go. However, Japanese Go will not be able to keep up for the time being. Now it seems that Japanese Go can only see how far their generation can grow......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Lin turned his gaze to Zhang Xu.

“…… That's why I brought him this time, and I'm going to ask you to bring me a lot in the future. ”

Coach Luo is a coach. His love for talent is well known. He saw that Mr. Lin Haifeng valued his beloved apprentice so much, and he was naturally full of interest in Zhang Xu:

"Then let's eat quickly, speed up the progress, and let Xiaoqiang and this kid have a good plate. But don't talk about it. This child is at least a little similar to Xiaoqiang, when Xiaoqiang was young, he was as silent as this child. ”

"Luo Lao means to say: Xiaoqiang, this guy has become oily and slippery now." was despised by Li Xiaoqiang several times today. Reporter Zhang Da did not forget to fight back once.

"Hahahaha."

The atmosphere of the dinner became relaxed and pleasant, and the focus of the topic shifted to Zhang Xu. Only through small talk did I know that Zhang Xu had just entered the section this year. I didn't enter the stage until I was 15 years old, which is a little late. And Li Xiaoqiang also knows a detail, it turns out that Kobayashi Quanmei is also entering the stage this year, and she and Zhang Xu still have a classmate friendship. In real history, it was Kobayashi Quanmei who took the initiative to pursue Zhang Xu, before that, Zhang Xu originally had a girlfriend who was a mainland student, but this girlfriend insisted on returning to China, so the relationship did not continue. Then Izumi Kobayashi took advantage of the void and entered.

"When did Izumi decide to attack Zhang Xu......"

Li Xiaoqiang looked at Zhang Xu and then at Kobayashi Quanmei, at this moment, the fire of Li Xiaoqiang's gossip was burning.

After dinner, Li Xiaoqiang's guidance to Zhang Xu began. Facing the 2 pieces on the chessboard, Li Xiaoqiang glanced at the shy Zhang Xu with a smile, and he took one out of his hand:

"2 pieces are not Go, so at least you can't see your layout level. Let's go as normal. You can set a goal in your mind, let you set it first or backwards, and you can follow your goal. Of course, you don't need to tell everyone about this goal. ”

"Okay, Xiao Qiang has a good idea, Xiao Zhang shouldn't hurry up to thank Mr. Li, Mr. Li wants to fulfill you, if you have a future career, then this will be a good story in the world chess world. I want to ...... back then"

Hearing Li Xiaoqiang's suggestion, everyone's atmosphere became even more enthusiastic. What everyone thinks of is naturally the two games of chess between Li Xiaoqiang and Mr. Dazhu back then. At that time, the chess set was that Mr. Otake asked him to paste 5 and a half meshes upside down, and Li Xiaoqiang made it clear that he would play those 2 games of chess with the standard of giving the first in his heart.

It can be said that those two games of chess are the starting point of Li Xiaoqiang's career, and with Li Xiaoqiang's rapid growth and now becoming more and more famous, the story of those two games of chess has been known by more and more people. Everyone made this story vivid. To say that back then, Li Xiaoqiang actually wanted to maintain the ancient Chinese chess, and he didn't want to be inferior in front of Japanese Go, so he just quarreled with Mr. Otake. But what about now? What is "ambitious", what is "not afraid of strong enemies", and what kind of fleshy brain supplement. Now that Li Xiaoqiang is recalling the old words, he wants to play chess with Zhang Xu in the way he did back then, so it's no wonder everyone is elated.

Umezawa Yukari looked at the high-spirited Li Xiaoqiang in front of her stupidly, thinking that back then, those two games of chess Umezawa also participated, she served as the notator of those two games, and the scenes of the past passed in Umezawa Yuka's heart.

I don't know what I remembered, at this time, Li Xiaoqiang also looked up at Yukari Umezawa. How so? In short, this glance looks "profound", and it makes Umezawa blush.

The two of them looked at each other and did not hide from the eyes of others. Li Xiaoqiang was gossiping about others just now, and now it's the turn of others to gossip about Li Xiaoqiang and Yuka Umezawa.

"Looking at this, the two of them seem to be in a real situation......

At this moment, many people think like this, and the fire of gossip is burning brightly in many people. It's a pity that everyone thinks crookedly, including Umezawa. Only Li Xiaoqiang himself is ignorant. Li Xiaoqiang recalled the two games of chess between himself and Mr. Otake, in fact, he remembered the "chess soul", and Li Xiaoqiang's method was actually learned from Fujiwara Sawei in the "chess soul".

Since he thought of the "chess soul", Li Xiaoqiang glanced at Yukari Umezawa...... What's so strange about that?

At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Li Xiaoqiang's guidance to Zhang Xu ended. Since the game is played in this way, the final result is not important.

"Mr. Lin, although Xiao Zhang is your disciple, his chess style is completely different from yours. In my opinion, his chess style is a bit similar to Mr. Wu's. ”

Although Zhang Xu is still young now, his chess style is no different from that of later generations, his chess is thin, not as heavy as Lin Haifeng, but his small means are very sharp, his chess is flexible, and his officials are good.

"And how did you feel after playing this game?"

"Mr. Lin, if I don't expect, I think Xiao Zhang's achievements in the future are likely to surpass yours. I don't dare to say that I will dominate the chess world, but I will not be surprised at all if I become the "total champion" of Japanese chess one day. ”

"That's a high rating?" Everyone was taken aback by Li Xiaoqiang's evaluation. You must know that Japan's professional Go has a long history, but so far, Zhao Zhixun is the only one who can win all the 7 major titles. Therefore, Li Xiaoqiang's evaluation is of course high.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, we'll see."

After saying this, Li Xiaoqiang was happy. You know, as a reborn, when he chooses to play Go professionally, it is actually very hard. Because there are not many benefits of choosing this project, many of the reborn cannot give full play to their advantages.

Of course, it's another thing to be a god like this. Li Xiaoqiang rarely enjoyed the benefits of a reborn person, and he was of course very comfortable now.

In fact, Zhang Xu was originally the second "all-champion champion" in the Japanese chess world after Zhao Zhixun.

After the chess instruction ended, everyone dispersed, perhaps it was the scene just now that stimulated everyone, and everyone intentionally or unintentionally let Li Xiaoqiang and Yukari Umezawa get along alone;

Li ...... Li Sang, I have something to say to you. ”

"Huh?"

Yukari Umezawa glanced at Li Xiaoqiang deeply:

"Count...... Forget it, let's wait until after your finals. Xiaoqiang, you want to win the championship. ”

"Oh?"

Yuka Umezawa was sullen for a while.

On the other side, Coach Luo and Mr. Lin Haifeng were also chatting.

"Mr. Lin, what do you mean ......?"

"Yes, if nothing else, then in the next few years, there is likely to be a situation in the world chess world where Li Xiaoqiang, Ma Xiaofei, Cao Yanzi and Li Shifo compete for hegemony!"

“…… So, the Japanese chess world wants to change......" (To be continued......
